3735291 - The billing type JSTO is not set as default for JNL delivery when creating the billing document in VF01 - SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition

Symptom

When creating the billing document from the delivery (type: JNL) in the "Create Billing Documents" VF01 app, the system does not automatically propose the expected billing type (JSTO).

Environment

SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition

Reproducing the Issue

  1. Open the "Create Billing Document" VF01 app.
  2. Enter a delivery with delivery type JNL.
  3. Proceed to create the billing document and the error message "No billing documents were generated. Please see log." occurs. 

Cause

System does not automatically select billing type JSTO for delivery type JNL. This is a gap in the current standard functionality. 

The copy control from delivery type JNL to billing type JSTO uses a complex validation routine (004) that performs extensive checks on order status, billing blocks, and pricing completion. But the system cannot determine the correct billing type automatically and defaults to F2, causing the error. 

Resolution

As a workaround, select the billing type JSTO manually when creating billing documents for JNL deliveries.
